Spent half term at this location and it was a good week. Had everything there, lots of random bits which all adds character to the property. The owners were phoned with a question about the boiler and within 10mins had come over to chat rather than phone which was a nice thing to do.
I noticed the reviews said people had dogs – you would not be able to tell as it was clean throughout.
Ideal location, only 20-30 min drive to any of the main locations whichever direction.
Would go back and take friends next time!

We had a truly wonderful holiday in this gorgeous farm house. The house is extremely comfortable and well equipped. The log burner gives a lovely welcome atmosphere and the owners supplied plenty of logs and coal for the week. The owners couldn’t have been more thoughtful and kind. In short we were very pleased with this holiday home indeed and thought it exceptional value for money.

Fantastic cottage, very cosy and well located for exploring the area. Lovely Views of Snowdon if you walked down the road a little. Michael was very helpful and chatty and the supply of logs was v much appreciated! My only criticism would be to note that the roll top bath is not a standard size bath and much smaller than expected, it was fine to bathe my children but if you wanted a soak after a long walk you would be hard pushed to fit in (and I am only 5ft 4!).
Lovely place though and would like to return!

This cottage has an amazing feel of calm and relaxation. Within easy distance of many attractions. The owners are lovely people who were quick to respond to any questions we had. We had a fabulous week and would certainly stay there again.

Lovely cottage, very comfortable and ‘homely’ in quiet peaceful surroundings. The children loved having cows right outside the windows! Very friendly and helpful owners who made sure we had all we needed. Lots to do in the area, Penrhyn Castle and Plas Newyd both good and Greenwood adventure playground was excellent, as well as lots of good beaches. Steam trains too! Useful having garage/shop nearby for milk, etc. We would definitely book this cottage again if we come back to the area.

We loved everything about this cottage; its character and charm, cleanliness, comfortable beds. Lovely warm welcome from owners who had left us cake & wine and had a lovely chat with Mike who told us the history of the cottage. Beautiful location, it really was idyllic with lovely, calm neighbours; the beautiful Welsh Blacks & the sheep! We only spent 3 nights there (joined by my mum and dad for one of them). We would definately recommend and try to stay again, but for longer!!

Lovely cottage, we were welcomed with a homemade cake and wine in the kitchen, the fire was set with plenty more fuel supplied for our stay. The situation was great and we loved our neighbours of lambs and Welsh Blacks. Everything we needed including super comfortable beds!

Lovely warm, comfortable cottage in a great location, and a beautiful cake waiting on arrival.
Our only disappointment was the kitchen equipment (crockery/cutlery/glassware) which, though plentiful, was a bit random with no wine glasses and few utility knives and teaspoons.

Beautiful cottage perfectly located in peaceful surroundings in a great location for exploring Snowdonia. The cottage is homely and has everything you need for a great comfortable holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here and would highly recommend it.

A lovely cottage in a peaceful location. Felt like a home from home and has all the equipment you need. Great for visiting with dogs. We would definitely rebook this for future visits… though will bring mattress toppers as mattresses were too firm for us!
